I am not counting on anything. I remember the Bolton vote. It was that vote that spurred action on judges.

But there is too much defeatism, and unsubstiated thoughts running through these threads the last couple of days that it does more harm then good.

We put the scare into the Republicans that got this moved front and center. They currently have the votes because we made it understood we WILL vote on this issue alone.

People therefore coming on and saying it's DEAD, count on DEFEAT infuriates me. I didn't spend the last three and more weeks day after day on this issue to allow pessimists to jump in and defeat momentum that is clearly on our side. Whatever happens, happens. But until then I refuse to sit idly by while some people try to convince us it isn't worth the effort.

I do expect everyone to be contacting their representatives today, tomorrow, and everyday until all those judges are on the bench. The MSM is going to attempt to do the Dems dirty work and peel off those votes. It's up to us to make sure they don't.

I agree with you. Let's remain optomistic and give them the benefit of the doubt.
